In this episode of The 10Adventures Podcast, we dive into the crucial topic of brain health and injury prevention in outdoor sports. We chat with Kelsey Boyer, a passionate snowboarder whose journey took an unexpected turn after suffering multiple concussions during an Olympic qualifying year. Kelsey shares her experience of unknowingly sustaining repeated head injuries, the terrifying moment she discovered her brain had been bleeding for weeks, and the long road to recovery that followed.

We discuss the complexities of concussions, the surprising sports with the highest risk, and why brain injuries are often misunderstood. Kelsey also opens up about the physical and emotional challenges of recovery, including PTSD, mood swings, and the struggle to return to normal life. She highlights the healing power of mindfulness, yoga, and professional concussion therapy, offering valuable insights for anyone who loves adventure.

Tune in for an eye-opening conversation about protecting your brain while doing what you love! Be sure to check out Kelsey’s work and follow her journey, and if you’re inspired to embark on your own adventure, explore guided tours at 10Adventures.
